About Us
La Cocina de Frida is a 45-seat Mexican restaurant named for Frida Kahlo, in Andersonville’s old Angel’s space.“The concept is made-from-scratch Mexican food and family recipe cooking,” says Marlene, The owner. “My grandmother in Guerrero always cooked from scratch.” Frida will feature ample enchiladas with a choice of sauce and filling (Want mole negro with plantain filling? You got it), and buñuelos (fried flat dough) with an apricot-honey infusion. “We are not afraid to serve the odd things they serve in Mexico, like berros [a tart, spinachy leaf like watercress],” saysMarlene. “You sauté it with garlic and onion, pour on a ranchero sauce, serve it with black beans and big slice of queso fresco, and you’re good to go with a nice lunch.”
